Wrap it up folks, time to export your Airtable data and look for an alternative. Any amount of usage will absolutely be locked behind a paid plan. Anyway, if anyone's building a flexible gridtable OSS frontend, hit me up.

Since nobody cares about 3rd place position in the world cup, I'd say let the players rest and settle it with a Magic the Gathering playoff. Deck colors need to match the country's colors. Proxying the commander card into each team's captain is allowed.

MTG commander card Elsha of the Infinite

Type: Legendary Creature - Djinn Monk

Text: Prowess (Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, this creature gets +1/+1 until end of turn.) You may look at the top card of your library any time.

You may cast noncreature spells from the top of your library. If you cast a spell this way, you may cast it as though it had flash.

Stats: 3/3

MTG commander card Eowyn, Fearless Knight

Type: Legendary Creature - Human Knight

Text:

Haste

When Éowyn, Fearless Knight enters the battlefield, exile target creature an opponent controls with greater power. Legendary creatures you control gain protection from each of that creature's colors until end of turn.

"Am I not of the House of Eorl? I have waited on faltering feet long enough."

Can anyone help me uncover this mystery? Why does the purchase history on my hardware store website is limited to the last 15 months... but only on weekends???

Last.fm is going independent and just put out the most unproblematic company announcement I've ever read. "Our company is going through massive structural changes and there will be absolutely no downside to our users". support.last.fm/t/last-fm-is...

Is Last.fm shutting down? No. The service continues as normal.

Is Last.fm being acquired by another company? No. Last.fm is now operating independently.

Is the team changing? The team building and operating Last.fm remains in place.

What does independence mean for users? It means we can focus fully on building listening insights and community features for music fans. You'll see continued, steady improvements over time.

Is my account or listening history affected? No. Your account, scrobbles, and listening history remain unchanged.

Is my personal data safe? Yes. Your data and privacy settings remain unchanged. There is no change to how your data is stored or protected as a result of this ownership change.

Is Last.fm selling user data? No. There is no change to our approach to data handling or privacy as part of this transition.

The only success metric I have in any side project is for my enemies to yell to their henchmen that I was able to build this in a cave with a box of scraps.

I think it would be super derpy if that was true, but Oda being a genius planted seeds for this way back (as for most other theories out there).

I think this makes a lot of sense! Providing a rigid, but rich structure gives the contents more options on how to arrange, so the final result is more fluid. A simpler stacking arrangement gives you less options. Tried thinking a visual metaphor with a box of dice, not sure it works:

Two narrow wooden boxes with red dice inside. On one box, they are all arranged to one side, like they slid together.

On another, they are split in the middle and flush to the sides. This represents the single track, limited arrangements provided by flexbox.

A large wooden box full of red dice inside. There's a raised wooden grid at the bottom, and the dice are neatly organized inside in 3 square groups.

They have very distinct arrangements, almost fluid, but all follow the grid.

This represents the rigid nature of the grid, and how it can ironically provide more fluid layout options.

I mostly agree with your take, but mainly think they went for an extremely safe and boring version of a butterfly logo. And the funniest thing is that we do have an example of an extremely rad and culture defining social butterfly logo for comparison 😅

+1 to Obsidian tasks! I used to have a very complex setup that I ditched and now just keep weekly tasks on the same note for the entire year. Still properly tagged per project/initiative and done dates (added automatically by the plugin) so I can easily query them later.
